Looks like this supports a single listening socket only, correct?  That
is a long-standing issue we have in qemu.  Listening on both ipv4 and
ipv6 doesn't work, except when binding the socket to the ipv6 wildcard
address which can accept ipv4 connects too on most systems.

Would be nice to tackle that while putting the socket code upside down
anyway.
